v2 Chapter 3: Visit Buddha Temple

With the chirping of birds outside the window, Lin Xiuyi got a big slack from the bed.

After a good night's sleep, Lin Xiuyi completely fell in love with this different way of traveling. No need to be led around by tour guides, no need to leave silly photos in front of popular attractions and then forward them to the circle of friends. Just walk around as much as you want, taste the characteristic local cuisine, and get a complete relaxation in the natural scenery and natural hot springs.

Lin Xiuyi got dressed and tidied up the bedding. Then left the room and went to the restaurant downstairs.

"Mr. Lin, good morning!" Kanako Kimura, who met last night, greeted Lin Xiuyi when she saw him.

"You're early too, Miss Kimura!" Lin Xiuyi responded. It just so happened that Lin Xiuyi's colleagues also came downstairs.

"Xiuichi-kun, have you met an acquaintance?" Miki asked curiously.

"This is Miss Kimura Kanako, I also met yesterday!" Lin Xiuyi explained.

"Hello. I'm Kanako Kimura, I work at TV Asahi, nice to meet you!" Kanako took the initiative to come over and greet everyone.

"Ah, working on a TV station is so enviable. Then you must be able to meet a lot of stars!"

Miki's character is a bit familiar, and it's not polite to start asking about people's work when they first meet. Lin Xiuyi hurriedly apologized to Kanako, but Kanako didn't take it seriously, and instead got along very well with Miki. After everyone introduced each other, they became familiar with each other, so they sat together. Not long after, the older lady Mizukawa, who was worried about Kanako at Umegakiya yesterday, also came downstairs.

"Director Mizukawa, good morning!" Kanako greeted Mizukawa.

"Kanako, have you met new friends so soon?" Shui Chuan also came over to greet Lin Xiuyi and the others.

"I forgot to introduce it last night. This is the director of our Fuji TV station Mizukawa! This time we are here to find the legend of the Buddha Village, and we want to adapt it into a TV series..."

After everyone got acquainted, they sat down at a table for breakfast. The breakfast at Umegakiya was very rich, with horse mackerel, miso soup, white rice, and vegetables made from sake lees made by Umegakiya. For a bachelor like Lin Xiuyi, it is not every day that he can eat such a hearty breakfast in the morning.

"Miss Kimura, I heard that there are treasures in Buddha Village. Someone picked up Jin Xiaojing in the stream in the village, and he even appeared on TV. Is it true or false?" After everyone was familiar with it, Hua Xing asked curiously.

"It's true, someone did pick up Jin Xiaojing in the river, but it was five years ago. Later, the relevant departments conducted a detailed investigation nearby, but unfortunately they still did not find the whereabouts of the treasure. But I do I'm more interested in another thing that happened here, have you heard that a girl from this village died tragically in the Buddha Temple on the mountain ten years ago?" Kimura Kanako asked with a mysterious face.

"Is it true that someone was killed? I thought it was a rumor?" After Kanako said this, Miki immediately became interested.

"This is really not a rumor. Ten years ago, after a woman was killed, she put her body in the Buddha Temple on the mountain. The case has not been solved yet!" 's leather-covered notebook, then flipped through it a few times, and took out another slightly yellowed newspaper clipping from inside.

"Look, this is the report material at the time. I was also influenced by this news and decided to try to adapt this case into a TV series!" Kanako handed the clipping to Miki, who read it carefully. , and then passed on to the flower shape.

Lin Xiu picked up the newspaper clipping and read it with great interest. This newspaper clipping did not give a detailed introduction to the case. Instead, most of the writing and ink were put on the legend of Futu Temple. The text also mentioned the souls of the dead monks in Futu Temple. Every 10 years, a woman will be taken away. the legend of.

"Miss Kimura, I'm actually thinking of going to the Buddha Temple. If it's convenient, can I join you and Supervisor Shuichuan today?" Lin Xiuyi took the initiative to ask.

"Of course, if it's convenient for you, we can't ask for it!" Supervisor Mizukawa enthusiastically agreed.

"Xiuyi-kun, I also want to go to the Buddha Temple!" Miki answered without hesitation.

"Aizawa, Hanagata, what are your plans today?"

"I brought a fishing rod, I wanted to try my luck in the nearby stream today!" Aizawa made a fishing gesture with his right hand.

"I've already planned to go to the place where Jin Xiaojing was found!" Hua Xing cheerfully said to Lin Xiuyi.

Since everyone has their own interests, Lin Xiuyi will not make any arrangements. And Superintendent Mizukawa and Kanako also welcomed Miki very much~lightnovelpub.net~ After breakfast, Lin Xiuyi and Aizawa took away the car keys and took everyone to the Buddha Temple.

Like most temples, Buddha Temple was built on a sparsely populated hill. It takes about half an hour to drive from Umegakiya to Buddha Temple. However, because the Buddha Temple is not a famous tourist attraction, and because it has already been destroyed by fire. Therefore, the local road leading to the Buddha Temple is already in a semi-abandoned state. And the distance from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain is only a mountain path covered with moss.

The four people parked the car at the foot of the mountain and then climbed up the mountain road leading to the top of the mountain.

It can be seen that there are not many tourists visiting here, and the steps are full of wet leaves and dead branches from trees. The mountain road is rugged, and it is impossible to climb to the top of the mountain in one breath. Lin Xiuyi and the others took several breaks in the middle, and it took an hour to climb to the top of the mountain.

"This place should have been abandoned long ago, right?" Lin Xiu asked involuntarily as he looked at an empty courtyard in front of him.

"Yes! The original Buddha Temple was indeed burnt down a long time ago, but because of the high terrain and the village's desire to rely on the Buddha Temple to develop tourism, the Buddha Temple was rebuilt for a time. Unfortunately, it was soon to be completed. When a murder occurs, the reconstruction will be over!"

Lin Xiuyi observed the nearby scenery. The field of vision here is indeed very good. You can easily see the whole picture of the whole Buddha village. He passed through the gate of the Buddha Temple and entered the courtyard. Directly opposite the gate is a Buddhist hall. There is a pine tree on the left and right sides of the courtyard. The surrounding is decorated with small soft stones in a Japanese-style courtyard style with dry landscape. It is a pity that there is no one to maintain here, the courtyard is full of fallen leaves, and the whole temple looks very lonely.
